Sparta | Salem, VA
Conditions: 63 deg. F | Calm, overcast
PAX: Cake, Cat Scratch, Chungus (0.5), Dunphy, Frizzle, Herschel, Kwon Do, Pipeline
Q: Pipeline
Seven-and-a-half men and beasts gathered for a beatdown on the hallowed asphalt of Sparta. Frizzle made a celebrity guest appearance and was promptly promoted to site Q on Mondays. Herschel couldn’t use his paw due to his appearance on Tool Time, so he and Chungus patrolled the perimeter while the rest of us got to work.
Warmup: Mosey to the statue of Andrew Lewis, aka Aloysius Dunphy (founder of F3 Roanoke), for a warmup. Then mosey back to the parking lot by the stadiums.
The Thang: Animal Hunt. One partner crawls in one direction; the other runs in the opposite to a designated turnaround point, and then runs back to corral his animal. The runner then carries the animal back to the start.
Round 1: Bear crawls
Round 2: Crab walks (Frizzle: “Double Humpee makes me feel good about my crab walk.”)
Round 3: Gorilla crawl
Round 4: Traveling burpee
Round 5: Lunge walk
Round 6: Back to bear crawls
Round 7: Crab walk. Pipeline denied Kwon Do a ten count.
The secret to Cake’s bear crawl is Brussels sprouts for that quick methane boost.
Mary and the COT, count-o-rama, name-o-rama, announcements (BRR, Spartans, 3rd anniversary workout, 2nd F) and Pipeline took us away.
An honor and a privilege!
